Muslims shout abuse, send warning letter to owner of Greedy Pigs cafe, demanding its name be changed
A CAFE owner has refused to change the name of her business after being told it was “wrong, disgusting, shameful and offensive” in an anonymous letter.
Shelly Harper, who runs the Greedy Pigs sandwich bar and diner on Paley Road, East Bowling, spoke out after receiving the worrying letter last week. It has since been shared on social media, leading people to hit out at its message.
The letter says: “I am writing to you to inform you we as a whole community are extremely concerned about the name of your shop’s trade or the sign board. The name Greedy PIGS is extremely wrong, disgusting, shameful and offensive to the passer-bys and community.
“Please immediately change the name of your shop to something else which is not offensive. There is no need to call it Greedy Pigs.
“Use common sense. That’s not how you should be naming a shop. Not everyone in the communities believes in the same thing as you and not everyone agrees nor appreciates silly shop names as the one you have put up outside your shop.”
It adds: “So the first thing you need to do is change that stupid name from the shop’s sign board and get rid of the pictures of the pigs. Not everyone finds the name Greedy Pigs or the pictures of pigs to be pleasant and not everyone consumes pork and pig products.”
The letter, signed Regards: from the community, continues its diatribe and then advises on how the handling of food could be improved “in order to attract customers from a halal diet and vegetarian diet backgrounds”.(Editor note: Fuck people with a Halal diet. Why should we care what they think?)
Miss Harper, 45, who has been open for 16 months, says she first received a similar letter a couple of months after opening and then it went quiet. But she says she has received the second letter against a backdrop of young Asian males driving past, hurling abusive language at her and so she took the decision to report it to police in fear of something else happening….
Miss Harper is standing firm and will not be changing the name….
I dont understand why its the worlds responsibility to protect muslims who choose to live in western countries from overhearing chit chat about the latest terror attacks, or see pictures of pigs or seeing the word pig, or peppa pig cartoon. We must never disapprove of their fashion choices, ee have to hide christain crosses, defy separation of church and state laws and have islam imposed on students, or complain about behavior of their children running wild stabbing people. Please please, someone tell me what contribution is being made by having these people here. All i see is the erosion of the culture of the indigenous English just like what happened to native Americans and other places the uk government forced a disrespectful population upon them.
